Thanks, smokindog! That was a great bit of nostalgia. I now feel as old as I actually am. :|

I'd love to find a video such as that for the Tiger guitar. And I'm now obsessed with finding an image of my old Decca electric. I bought a "Decca Guitars & Amps" catalog card last night on eBay (my very first eBay purchase!!!!). I'm hoping that out of the 4 electrics shown, mine is one of them.

Anyway...thanks for the YouTube link! :)

Love and Peace or Else,

Wow!

The Hammond H182 with Series 10 tone cabinet I've got sold new for around $4000 in 1967. If the original buyer(s) had only known they could have had "real professional pipe organ sound" for only $20 with an Emmenee!
:shock:

With no sort of learnin' involved either! You just sit down and chords come flowing out of you. What a bargain!

Takamine G-series acoustic guitar. A decent sounding beginner's guitar.

Some people just buy certain stuff cuz they think if it's a "brand name" and it costs more it's better. Duh. :roll:

:lol:

An '04 Epi LP Classic Plus that my (now) wife bought for me. I've put some Gibson Classic '57's in it and she plays and sounds like a dream! Much rougher around the edges tone than my SG.

Great Thread! (even if it has been done a few times before)

My first guitar was a Sears Silvertone acoustic 12 string (right handed)
not long before it was reduced to a 6 string.

This thread should be moved to the "I'm looking for a..." forum as a Sticky.
It would help a lot of beginners to see what we all started with. :wink:
